Name That Tune!
| 
Dec 29 17:21 UTC 1998 |
Okay, here's how this works. The person who's "it" hums a well-known
tune. Other people try to guess the name of it. The first person to do
so correctly "wins" and gets to hum the next tune.
Happy humming!

Now now. This is a *real* song.
If nobody get it in the next day or two, I'll hum another part
of the song for you.

I apologize for doubting the reality of Snordly things even for
an instant. However, you're barking up the wrong trio.
Not "All My Snords" or "Besa Me Mucho".
Okay, I'll hum another part of the song:
hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm
hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm
hm hmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmm
hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm
hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm
hm hmmmm hmmmm hmmmm hmmmm

Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me,
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Saw a cute cartoon in the New Yorker a few months ago.
Dorothy, the Tim Man, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly
Lion are standing there with the Wizard, and Dorothy
is saying: "And please, sir, I'd like a large and devoted
following of gay men."

<lee gets another rainbow song stuck in her head>
Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
And what's on the other side?

The questions in the first 2 lines make me think of "Blowin' in the wind",
but I'm not sure if they rhythm's quite right.
Come to think of it, the question marks are in the wrong places for "Blowin'
in the wind" too.
Curses.
The rhythm fits the Beatles' "With a little help from my friends". Was that
'67?
I'm putting my vote in for the 1st verse of "With a little help from my
friends"
